Gyokeres has scored 54 goals in 52 appearances this season. His explosive form has made him one of Europe’s most in-demand forwards. Fresneda praised his relentless drive, calling him “a machine in games, in training, in life”.

Both Arsenal and Manchester United are tracking Gyokeres. Arsenal missed out on a striker in January and now sees Gyokeres as a top priority. United, meanwhile, has reportedly exited the race after Gyokeres expressed doubts about their project.

Champions League Ambitions Could Decide Move

Gyokeres is eager to join a Champions League club. Arsenal’s qualification and long-term vision may give them an edge. Sporting Lisbon is demanding over £60 million for the striker, and negotiations are ongoing.

Fresneda’s Praise Fuels Transfer Buzz

Fresneda’s comments have added fuel to the speculation.

“He’s a star from another world,” Fresneda told FlashScore.
“He always needs to score goals. He gets frustrated if he doesn’t.”
